It didn't work for me.
I put the word secure in menu.lst. I added etc/shadow and etc/passwd to .filetool.lst.
If I leave secure in menu.lst for the next boot, it asks for new passwords again.
If I boot without secure in menu.lst, it boots without a password.
Are you supposed to leave secure in all of the time, or only once to set passwords?
Also I can type sudo and any command in the terminal, and it doesn't ask for a password.
Is that how it is supposed to be?
I am trying to work out exactly how it is supposed to be done, to find out if I may be doing something wrong. There may be something simple I don't understand.
Are there any extensions which need to be installed for secure to work?
Also are passwords just for login, or also required for performing administrative tasks?
